Abstract

“Disconnection” has become the new normal of Internet connectivity culture. The article traces the “anti-technology” of thought in the process of oral communication, text communication, print communication, electronic communication, and internet communication. This study analyzes the discussion content of Western disconnectors on the foreign platform “Reddit” and explores the user’s understanding of this behavior. This study rethinks significantly these behaviors that seem to be “anti-technology.” Disconnection, as a result, for those who actively disconnect, is another connected way of life, active pursuit of self, resistance to media and capital power, and a new reflection on the relationship between people and technology. The purpose of “disconnection” is to accomplish the subjectivity of humans and promote the healthy development of the relationship between humans and technology.
